Sardinia Holidays - Italy

Sardinia is synonymous with white sand beaches and the translucent turquoise waters which lap its shores. It has more to offer than just the coast, however, and we recommend car hire to explore the many mountain villages which are hidden in the hinterland. This is the real Sardinia, away from the glitz and glamour of the Costa Smeralda, where you will find welcoming locals ready to immerse you in their culture. There really is something for everyone here; whether you want to watch the rich and famous and their luxury yachts in Porto Cervo, explore of the beaten track in the mountains or simply relax on the beach in idyllic surroundings.

Points of Interest in Sardinia

Visit Nora and see archaeological treasures from the 8th and 9th centuries BC. Take a trip to Chia where a 16th century campanile stands guard over the Punic settlement of Bithia and one of Sardinia's most picturesque stretches of coast gives way to perfect sandy coves. People watching on Sardinia is a must and Porto Cervo on the northern Costa Smeralda is the place to do it; with its luxury marina and yacht club and designer boutiques it really is the place to be seen. Simply marvel at the islands natural beauty; from the rugged mountains of the interior to the iridescent, clear blue waters and white sand beaches which some say are reminiscent of those in the Indian Ocean.
